There's probalby some simple answer to this but i need some help. I'm wondering whats the matter w/ the car. Its idling fine, but when the ac's on the steering wheel shakes, and the engine idles roughly, and the shake is worse when in gear. I doubt its something major, but i'm justing wanting to know what i can do to get rid of it.

thanks for any help

Upgrades (comming soon)- 3sgte engine swap
- small engine tweaks here and there
- new paintjob (black w/ overlay of blue pearl)

possible future upgrades- gt4 hood/bumper
- upgrade the 3sgte turbo.

most of the time my car idles at a decent speed, usually around 7500. but when the ac's on it usually lowers around 6000. also it usually lowers to about 6000-5000 when i've been driving for a while, but it is still smooth even at that low of rpm's and only becomes rough when the ac's on.

That is DEFINATELY not your idle, lol. RPMs are x1000.

For the idle-up circuit: Look for a black, 2-wire connector. On the 7AFE engine, the connector is on the rear-driver's side, near the top. My wiring manual says one wire is red/yellow, but that might not be accurate. There should be 2 hoses coming from the solenoid. You can test the solenoid by connecting +12V to the TOP pin of the solenoid's connector, and the bottom pin to GND. You should hear a click.

I'd recommend getting the belts and compressor checked. If it's worse when you're driving around (I assume that's what "in gear" means) then it likely isn't the idle-up circuit that's the problem.
